If cavitation occurs in propeller, it generates vibration and noise accordingly which results in low efficiency of propeller. It's important to increase cavitation inception speed(CIS) since the noise of cavitation increases significantly from the beginning of cavitation. This paper describes the result of actual observation and measurement onboard ship with controllable pitch propeller(CPP), so as to verify the first occurrence phenomenon of cavitation. The research suggests new type of controllable pitch propeller with improved CIS at the bolt as it started with bolt cavitation as result of observation. It's not found bolt cavitation on the CPP proposed in this paper, furthermore its CIS is increased approximately by 4.5 knots than the existing CPP. The result of the research can be used for development of low-noise CPP and improving performance of CIS.

Recently, plastic products in air-intake parts of automotive engines have become very popular due to advantages that include reduced weight, constricted cost, and lower intake air temperature. However, flow-induced noise in air-intake parts becomes a more serious problem for plastic intake-manifolds than for conventional aluminum-made manifolds. This is due to the fact that plastic manifolds transmit more noise owing to their lower material density. Internal aerodynamic noise from an idle speed control actuator(ISA) is qualitatively analyzed by using a scaling law, which is expressed with some flow parameters such as pressure drop, maximum flow velocity, and turbulence kinetic energy. First, basic flow characteristics through ISA passage are identified with the flow predictions obtained by applying computational fluid dynamics techniques. Then, the effects on ISA passage noise of each design factors including the duct turning shape and vane geometries are assessed. Based on these results, the preliminary low noise design for the ISA passage are proposed. The current method for the prediction of internal aerodynamic noise consists of the steady CFD and the scaling laws for the noise prediction. This combination is most cost-effective, compared with other methods, and therefore is believed to be suited for the preliminary design tool in the industrial field.

For ASME Code pumps in nuclear power plants, inservice test is required to assess the operational readiness in accordance with ASME code and related regulations. The objective of this study therefore, is to develop the technical background of the degradation of pump performances and conditions due to low flow rate operation. In addition. the detection techniques of pump operating conditions are to be developed to enhance the safety and economy of nuclear power plants. A test loop consisted of pump, motor. water tank, flow rate measurements and piping system with flow control devices was established for this study. Two typical pumps, 1-stage volute pump and 3-stage turbine pump, were selected and the test was performed upon two major point of views ; i.e., pump discharge pressure pulsations analysis and pump vibration spectrum analysis. From the test results, it is concluded that (1) the pump vibration affected by the natural frequency of operating pump is significant in the low frequency zone (around 1 Hz) : the vibration amplitude. especially. is an important factor during low flow rate operation. and shall be monitored to ensure that it is within the limit of ASME OM code Part 6, (2) the vibration frequency and pump discharge pressure are affected by vane pass frequency and running speed, (3) the wave phenomena due to the compressiblity of water is anticipated during low flow rate operation. and the pump system shall be designed to prevent it and. finally, (4) the technical background of the degradation of pump performances and conditions due to low flow rate operation is provided.

The absorption coefficients of various length bundles of straws simulating perforated material were studied both theoretically and experimentally. For the theoretical predictions Zwikker and Kosten's theory was modified by adapting Biot's theory based on Poiseuille flow. The experimental data were collected using an impedance tube where the attenuation along the length of the tube was considered. The theoretically predicted values agreed very well with the experimentally measured ones for frequencies lower than 700Hz with bundles shorter than 120mm in length placed against the rigid end of the impedance tube. Configurations with an air gap between the end of a bundle and the rigid end were also investigated. Absorption coefficients were higher for 150mm bundles than for those of combined/air gap configurations with a total length of 150mm. Also for the fixed bundle lengths, absorption was found to increase with increasing air gap.

For the construction of smart factory that are part of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, data from the production environments and production machines should be collected, analyzed, and feedback should be given to predict when failures take place or parts should be replaced. For this purpose, a system that monitors the production environments and the status of the production machines are required. In this paper, the monitoring system for mobile devices and PC is implemented by collecting environmental data from production sites and sensor data of production machine using LoRa, a low-power wireless communication technology. On the mobile devices, production environments and vibration data can be displayed in real time. In PC monitoring program, sensor data can be displayed graphically to check standard deviation and data variation. The implemented system is used to collect data such as temperature, humidity, and atmospheric pressure of the production environment, and vibration data of production machines.

In this paper, a low-power MPPT interface circuit for vibration energy harvesting sources is presented. The designed circuit rectifies the harvested ac type energy to the dc type energy required to drive the system, and periodically samples and holds the open circuit voltage (Voc) through the MPPT controller, and transfers the harvested power to the load while maintaining the input voltage at 1/2 of the maximum available power point.

The findings of ferromagnetic superconductor have attracted much attention not only for fundamental research to investigate how the antagonistic properties of ferromagnetism and superconductivity coexist peacefully but also for potential technological applications. Firstly, in order to help for understanding the ferromagnetic superconductor, I have explained the orbital and paramagnetic pair-breaking effects of magnetic field, which breaks the superconducting Cooper pairs. In addition to such effects of magnetic field, the singlet Cooper pairs become unstable upon going through the ferromagnetic materials by the proximity effect. The proximity effect occurs at the interface of thin films composing of superconductor and ferromagnet and leads to have very short penetration depth of Cooper pairs. However, a type of odd-frequency triplet in comparison with the singlet could be very stable and has a longer effective depth. It needs to be explored for the innovative spintronic devices. Finally, various ferromagnetic superconductors coexist and the lower-dimensional materials under the Quantum confinement effect have been introduced.

The addition of swirl is a common technique used in premixed combustors in order to gain stability of the combustion with the improvements in mixing characteristics. recent experimental studies have observed that the addition of swirl oxidizer flow can effectively reduce the combustion instability in hybrid rocket. Investigation was continued to analyze the effect of the swirl on the internal flow of hybrid rocket engine main combustion chamber. The flow influenced by wall blowing as a representation of fuel evaporation interacts with swirling flow. Swirl angle increases, the amplitude of the combustion pressure decrease as the unstable combustion processes. These results suggest that the oxidizer swirling flow by the swirl angle causes the change of the turbulent flow characteristics inside the combustion chamber and suppresses the factors causing the combustion instability.
